Abstract

This chapter deals with the political implications of conflating corruption and human rights in the US foreign policy. It structures its argumentation along with two points. First is that the specific and narrow framing of corruption as human right issue serves the demonisation of the public sector. Second point it makes is that this fits with the neoliberal discourse on corruption propagated by the UN, the World Bank, IMF, and other international organisations including also NGOs.
